Voter Registration

Are you registered to vote?

If you are unable to use the Online Voter Registration Service, you can contact us or choose one of the options below.

Most Canadians who are eligible to vote (Canadian citizens at least 18 years old) are already registered in the National Register of Electors, which is used to create the lists of electors. To check if you are registered, or to register or update your address information, please use the Online Voter Registration Service.

Why register in advance?

To vote in a federal election, you must be registered on the list of electors. You can register at the polls when you go to vote, but if you register in advance at the right address, you will receive a voter information card in the mail when a federal election is called. The voter information card tells you when, where and the ways to vote. An up-to-date registration will also make the voting process faster.
